Can it work? Has anyone tried it yet? Right now we're forced to choose either to build a passing only or rushing only team if we want to be competitive with the determining factor being the O-Line. It's easier to make run-blocking only OL and run all game or pass-blocking OL and pass all game than to build balanced OL and try to do both. So why not spend the superstar salaries on the OL and the rest on D? Just brainstorming.

It's my opinion that S* O-lineman are only worthwhile in a rushing offense. You can get away with very little pass blocking in a passing offense. I suppose you can make a bunch of S* O-lineman in a balanced offense and make them all run lean. But would it be worth the money?

It would be cheaper than having 5 S* WR but not as cheap as 2 S* HB. But in return you get options in offense and you can make life hard for opposing DCs by constantly switching up your offensive focus each game.

Edit: Actually, having just taken a look again at HB salaries it would be cheaper than 2 S* HBs but not as cheap as a 1 S* HB offense like Minnesota Stunners.

S* OLine are best used on pulling guards.

I have a superstar OL on my balance team. He's a run blocker, though.

after the blocking cost changes, there isn't nearly as much difference between S* and non S* linemen for a run team. It means the difference between 90/80 run block tech/power and 85/75. That salary would best be spent on defense or on the ballcarriers

Superstar oline sounds dumb without superstar hb's running through it.

you can actually get to 100/75 tech/power with a S* OL

If that's true, instead of going 100/75 run-blocking you do 90/70 how high would you be able to get for pass-blocking at the same time?
